DESCRIPTION:From New York’s Carnegie Hall to the Sydney Opera House\, from
Womadelaide to Woodford Folk Festival\, and many places in between Tibetan
singer-songwriter Tenzin Choegyal has thrilled audiences around the world
with his soaring vocals and mastery of traditional instruments. He has pe
rformed before the Dalai Lama and shared the stage with many well-known ar
tists and composers. But he especially enjoys the chance to perform at mor
e intimate concerts where he can share playful stories and well-loved trad
itional tunes with his audiences.Tenzin was born in Tibet\, a child of Tib
etan nomads who followed their herds and traded salt\, spending summers in
the mountains and wintering on the plains. However\, he spent his early y
ears in Mustang\, in the north-east of Nepal after his family fled the Chi
nese occupation in the early 1970’s. But memories of the music of his home
land have stayed with him.&nbsp\;An outstanding vocalist\, Tenzin is a mas
ter of traditional Tibetan instruments such as the dranyen (long-necked lu
te) and lingbu (transverse bamboo flute). He recalls\, when growing up\, h
earing his father playing the flute and his mother singing the nomadic son
gs of Tibet. Alongside traditional Tibetan Buddhist devotional chants\, th
ese tunes still play a central part in his musical repertoire today.Tenzin
sets aside several weeks each year for his very special “For Tibet with L
ove Home Concert Tour”\, performing concerts to raise money and awareness
in support of Tibetans in exile. This year he has agreed to donate a porti
on of funds raised to support the work of the Tibetan Children’s Village S
chool in Dharamsala\, India\, where he spent his childhood.&nbsp\;Heyfield
Community Resource Centre is delighted to be hosting one of Tenzin’s conc
erts at Heyfield Memorial Hall in MacFarlane Street on Friday November 9th
at 7.00pm. The concert will be followed by light refreshments. This promi
ses to be a joyful evening of music and sharing as well as a unique opport
unity to support Tenzin in his cause.&nbsp\;Tickets are $25 for adults and
$10 for children. To find out more or book your place\, please contact:Ph
